Chapter 1173 The King of London ([-])

"Ai Huan takes a corner kick? Is this really rare?" Dong Lu said strangely, and Fan Haidong also let out a surprise, but his eyes were fixed on the TV screen, for fear that he might miss something.

When the whistle blew, Ai Huan spun his legs on the spot like a free kick. When his foot touched the football, the ball jumped up high immediately, but it didn't fly into the penalty area but flew away. To the outside of the restricted area.

At this moment, Cahill happened to be in this position, and he was here just for show, because Chelsea's frontcourt attack power was terrifying, so the Tottenham players didn't even notice his existence, and they didn't even notice his presence when the corner kick was sent. People were standing next to him, and at this moment, when the football flew over his head and fell fast, no one had time to react.

Of course Cahill will not miss this kind of good opportunity, but he is not a striker. He didn't want to adjust his shooting angle and didn't even have time to think about it, so he just kicked up and volleyed. Immediately changed direction and flew into the goal from the upper left corner. This time the Tottenham goalkeeper did not react. He didn't even see what was going on. .

"Come in!" Dong Lu and Fan Haidong waved their arms almost at the same time. Although these two teams are nothing special to them, after all Chelsea still has Ai Huan, which also makes them subconsciously Think of Chelsea as their home team.

"This goal is really interesting. Ai Huan actually took the corner kick himself, and it was obvious that he was staring at Cahill from the beginning. Could it be that this is also a tactic that Mourinho has designed?" Dong Lu was a little strange .

"He took corner kicks in both the national team and the Olympic team. His footwork is very good and he passes the ball very accurately. However, I think this ball is a problem with Tottenham's defense. After all, Cahill's shooting skills are very average. Letting him miss is indeed a defensive problem, no one is dedicated to marking him, and this is the biggest problem."

But the fans at the scene didn't care what the reason was, the Tottenham fans booed immediately, and their abuse of Ai Fan became more violent, while the Chelsea fans began to raise their arms and cheer, bursting out to their hero for the most Huge cheers.

Cahill looked very excited, he immediately ran to the sidelines, and hugged Mourinho who was standing in front of the bench, and then hugged and celebrated with other players one by one, as if expressing his gratitude His loyalty and ability are similar, and Mourinho is also very happy about this, laughing in his ear to encourage him, which also makes the smile on Cahill's face even stronger.

After Ai Huan passed the ball, Mata was the first to run to his side, and said to him happily, "You did a great job, and I will leave the corner kick to you in the future."

Ai Huan sneered, "I just want to impress them a little bit, and I need you to serve a corner kick, but today our midfield was a bit messy, and we didn't create a good chance for more than ten minutes. "

"Everyone's condition is mediocre. You don't need to play for the national team. We can't do it." Mata shrugged his shoulders and said casually. After he finished speaking, he regretted it because he saw Ai Huan's face at this moment. There was a sliver of haze.

"The first half has been played for about 10 minutes, and the most important feature is that the formations of both teams are aggressively pressing forward." Fan Haidong suddenly began to explain the tactics, "The situation at both ends of the field is somewhat similar. The striker and attacking midfielder form a two-on-two situation with their own central defender, so the defensive midfielder retreats to the central defender line to form a three-on-two situation. However, in terms of strategy execution, Chelsea is more efficient, but the high-position press in the frontcourt is also difficult. It means that it is difficult for both teams to advance the ball to the frontcourt, which is why we feel that this game is a bit of a thunderstorm, and the tactics of the two sides are really the same, which is very interesting."

"This pair of coaches who have the status of master and apprentice collided. I really didn't expect this result." Dong Lu also became interested in this topic. There is only a certain amount of overlap, but who knows that this formation is used to attack and defend each other, and they are still playing very well, this is a spectacle."

Fan Haidong smiled, "The outside world said that the coaching styles of the two people are exactly the same. You can see it now. It's hard to say if they are the same, but the tactical concept is the same. The most suitable way, but the result is exactly the same, and the tactics on the field have become purely English style of play, which is also a difficult scene." He paused again "Of course, Tottenham's biggest The problem is that there is no Ai Huan, and at the same time, he has been very successful in suppressing Ai Huan so far in this game. Ai Huan's role in the positional battle has not been brought into play. This is the biggest problem Chelsea encountered today. Problem. And I dare say that if Bale can play today, he is also useless now, because Mourinho also prepared the same defensive tactics for him, this is the charm of the coach."

"Then Haidong, what do you think the next game will be like?" This is the first time that Dong Lu feels that Fan Haidong really has something. In the past, he always thought that Fan Haidong was a former star, but he always forgot. He is also a coach who has won the world championship. It seems that although there was luck in the World Youth Championship back then, Fan Haidong's reputation is not in vain.

"I think Tottenham will set off an offensive frenzy in the future. They will not be afraid just because they are facing Chelsea. I even think that after the first 10 minutes of the game, they even feel that it is all right."

The following game was really like what Fan Haidong said, Tottenham launched its own Jedi counterattack. No. Defoe counterattacked in 20 minutes. He shot with his left foot at the top of the penalty area and was barely saved by Petr Cech. Ashley Cole made a clearance before Dempsey. The former Fulham shadow striker scored goals in both games against Chelsea , so he is also called the Chelsea killer. In this game, Mourinho specifically asked Ashley Cole to defend him closely.

No.205 minutes, Ivanovic dived at the front of the opponent's penalty area, trying to cheat a free kick, but the referee saw it and got a yellow card.

No. In 30 minutes, Lennon made a cross from the right edge of the penalty area and was cleared. Sigurdsson quickly followed up and volleyed from the left side of the penalty area. The football was close to the left post and missed.
